Day Trip to Austin

Friday Dave had to drive to Austin for a client meeting. Since school is out, I decided that Gavin & I would tag along. Then I found out Dave was taking a canoe down to drop off to have seats installed, which necessitates a truck ride. Ok, I can be a big girl and ride 400 miles in the truck--single cab with a car seat in the passenger side. Dave offered to spilt the ride with me.
Then, Dave informs me that we have to be out the door at 6 am. Again, I can be a good sport & keep him company. Plus, we can shop at the Round Rock Outlets and swing by for a quick visit with Sara and the girls. And, more importantly, we can actually see each other.
To save time, Gavin and I dropped the canoe off. It was a bit warm, so we headed to HEB-- how I love that store--for a cool drink. The produce there is incredible. I couldn't resist grabbing fine blueberries.
After that, Gavin noticed a PetCo, so we looked at the pets & bought treats for Mason. Following a quick drive through our old neighborhood, it was time to pick Dave up from his office.
We had a yummy lunch at Baby A's, then headed over to Sara's construction site. They're adding on a guest suite and a pool. They hope to have everything finished in two weeks, after three months of construction, I hope they do.
Gavin and Avery played well together while the adults visited. Rylee is growing and will be walking soon.
It was great to swing by. We'll be back in two weeks for a weekend trip to see the Avett Brothers in New Braunfels.
Gavin crashed on the drive home. He slept until we stopped in Waco for a burger and milk shake at Health Camp. The burger wasn't great. The shakes were delicious!
Gavin was a great little traveler. He looked out the window and chatted with us when he wasn't sleeping.
